A project log for Atmega328P Target

Yet another dev board for the Atmega328P

The Saturday before last my PCBs arrived from JLCPCB.  I got the joy of getting out my soldering station and assembling everything.  It took me about an hour or so to get it assembled. It would really be nice to have a space for a dedicated bench vs having to invade to kitchen counters, but you can't have everything.

I plugged in my USBASP into the board and used avrdude to check that it could talk to the chip.  Avrdude was able to read it without issue.  FYI, I've learned that all surface-mount versions of the Atmega328P have kept full-swing oscillator support, the hardware revision that removed support for it was cancelled.

Again many thanks to all of you that liked my project that resulted in me getting the HaD prize seed funding to pay to get the boards made.  I'm not currently employed (I do side jobs when I get the opportunity), so I have to watch my spending.
